Jefferson and Hamilton differed on the question of whether or not Congress could do what?
They disagreed on practically everything but their esteem for George Washington. Specifically, however, their greatest and most significant difference on a power of Congress was whether Congress could establish a national bank (the "First Bank of the United States"). Hamilton argued that because Article I, section 9 of the Constitution did not specifically prohibit Congress from creating a national bank, then Congress was empowered to do so under Article I, section 8, clause 18 (the "implied powers clause," "necessary and proper clause," or "elastic clause"). Jefferson, who took a more limited view of Federal power, argued that because Article I, section 8 did not specify Congress could create a national bank, then it could not. Jefferson believed that only specified powers (such as power to tax, to maintain an army, to punish counterfeiters, etc.) could be exercised by Congress.
